Indeed. I had some strange things happening until OpenOCD had the 
endian bugs squashed.
Endian problems does not necessarily have to mean crashes; it 
could just be some data's high an low bytes being swapped.

building GCC-4.9.2, so this is not an issue with D.
I'll probably be trying to make a build for the next 10 hours.

On my G5, however, I managed to get as complete a build as I 
could, but it involves compiling GCC 4 times total (!) - This 
gives me C/C++ and D - including libstdc++! -but it takes a 
couple of hours. ;)
